A Note From Pastor Eric
T he Power of Prayer
Prayer isn't just a core value here at Violet; prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have as believers. It is through prayer that we communicate directly with God, we are able to thank Him for all He's done, lay our hearts before Him, seek His guidance and experiencing His peace. Scripture tells us in James 5:16 that “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective,” reminding us that prayer is not simply a daily check box, but a way for us to access the transformative power of God. Jesus taught us to pray, showing us prayers significance through His own prayers in Matthew 6:9- 13, and He promises in Matthew 18:20 that “For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I with them.” Prayer unites us with God and with others, making it a lifeline for anyone who calls themselves Christian. Let us be reminded of His promise in 1 John 5:14-15: “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” Would you join us at Violet for a Night of Prayer & Worship on March 4th at 7pm? This will be an evening to come together as a church family, lifting our voices in worship, praying for each other, the church, our community, our state, our country, and the world. I hope to see you here!
